Objectives This study was done to confirm reliability, validity and the internal structure of the Korean Medicine Satisfaction Questionnaire(KMSQ). Methods 154 parents who visited in Department of Pediatrics of Korean Medicine, University Hospital participated in this study. They were statistically analyzed by using PASW Statistics 20.0K for Windows. Results Factor analyses were largely divided into six categories such as Hospital, Waiting & Consultation Time, Doctor, Medicine, Therapy, and Cost. The validity and reliability of KMSQ were favorable. The highest average score of satisfaction was Doctor category as $4.20{\pm}0.51$ and the lowest one was Cost as $3.33{\pm}0.71$. The six factors showed highly positive relationship from correlation analysis. The result of comparative study on parent's demographic characteristics showed only one significant difference in satisfaction of Doctor within occupation. The result of comparative study on child's demographic characteristics showed significantly different in satisfaction of Therapy within gender, and of Medicine within age. Every average score of satisfaction showed somewhat difference within each section, and only 5.6% of them showed significantly difference in T-test. Conclusions Uses and research with the KMSQ as subjective tool in various department or medical institution are suggested.

At the age of materialism and ignorance for life, the introspection for the ethics problem of the doctors, is getting more and more attention. It seems that every doctors should have the basic virtues of modesty and benevolence. Such virtues have been stressed throughout the human history, and, apart from the Hipp. ocratic oath of ancient greece, the morality of a doctor is the essential virtue, even for the doctors of western medicine, whose medical technology is based on the materialism. Unlike western medicine, oriental medicine, for its holistic and relative nature, has more 'relative' factors generated from each individual doctors and therefore, tends to be influenced more by the doctors' attitudes. The diagnosis process itself can be influenced by the emotions of patients and doctors, and even the efficacy of the acupuncture treatment itself can be influenced by the conception a doctor has when he/she conduct the treatment. Therefore, in every classics of oriental medicine have stressed the basic 'attitudes of mind' a doctor should have. But, at the time when the western 'natural science' paradigm prevails, it seems to be difficult to educate such state of mind simply by 'understanding' it through books or media. It needs 'shift of concept' through the humane tools of education. Therefore, the present writer would like to consider the effects and influences of meditation as the tools to develop the virtues of oriental doctors, and to investigate the possibility that the virtues achieved by the meditation is the same one as mentioned in many oriental medical classics(not only the attitude for the patients, but also the state of mind a doctor should have during the diagnosis and treatment process).

Background: It is important to investigate patient satisfaction to improve the quality of healthcare. Among the many factors that affect patient satisfaction, perceived health status has been considered as one of the major factors. Therefore, we investigated patient satisfaction through patient experience in outpatient settings according to perceived health status. Methods: This cross-sectional study using questionnaires of patient experience and perceived health status from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2015 included 4267 people aged over 19 years who met the inclusion criteria. Perceived health status was classified into three: good, fair, and poor. Questions about patient experience consisted of four items: doctor spending enough time with patients, doctor providing easy-to-understand explanation, doctor giving opportunity to ask questions or raise concerns, and doctor involving patient in decisions about care or treatment. Patient experience was classified into two: satisfied and non-satisfied. A multivariate regression model was used to analyze the data. Results: In the good perceived health status group, level of satisfaction was 79.2%, 88.5%, 83.3% and 87.2%, respectively for the four items targeting patient experience. In the poor group, level of satisfaction was 76%, 84.9%, 79.5%, and 83.1%, respectively for the four items. In multivariate logistic regression analyses, the odds ratios of good perceived health status group were 1.775 (1.347-2.338), 1.946 (1.356-2.793), 1.652 (1.218-2.240), and 1.665 (1.193-2.323) compared with the poor group. Conclusion: Perceived health status is associated with patient satisfaction. In particular, the better the perceived health status, the better the patient satisfaction through patient experience.

고대세계에서 의학과 철학은 밀접한 관계에 있었다. 소크라테스 이전의 철학자들은 자연학의 일부로 인체에 대한 관심을 갖고 우리 몸의 구성이나 생리적·병리적 현상을 탐구했다. 또 플라톤과 아리스토텔레스는 의학이나 의사, 혹은 질병을 예로 들어 자신들의 철학적 논변을 전개했다. 여기서 철학과 의학은 비유적 차원에서 인간에서 유사한 역할을 하는 두 분야로 설정된다. 그들은 철학은 정념을 제거하여 우리 영혼을 치유하고, 의학은 질병을 제거하여 우리 육체를 치유한다는 점에서 공통적이라고 보았다. 다만 여기서는 의학과 철학의 관계가 유비적 차원에 머물고 있는 문제가 있다. 고대세계에서 의학과 철학의 체계적 결합은 의사-철학자의 전형인 갈레노스를 통하여 전면적으로 이루어졌다. 갈레노스는 의학과 철학의 관련 양상을 그의 글 「좋은 의사는 또한 철학자이다」에서 체계적으로 서술하였다. 갈레노스는 스토아 학파의 철학관을 받아들여 철학을 자연학, 논리학, 윤리학으로 구성된 학문으로 보았다. 따라서 갈레노스에게 좋은 의사는 자연학, 논리학, 윤리학에 정통한 철학자이기도 했다. 그는 의사-철학자의 완벽한 모델을 히포크라테스에게서 찾았다.

Objectives : This study was conducted to reveal the relationship between multiple factors of traditional Korean Medicine diagnosis and consider the further probabilities of treating people with physical and mental problems not defined as diseases, which is called 'Mibyeong' in traditional Korean Medicine. Methods : 40 healthy participants were included in the observational clinical trial. The participants were asked to complete health questionnaires (e.g. State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Stress Response Inventory) and they went through a traditional diagnosis process, including four stages of diagnosis (looking, listening/smelling, inquiring, and pulse taking), by a Korean Medicine doctor. Both the Korean Medicine doctor and an artery tonometry device performed the pulse diagnosis. Results : Although all participants were healthy people with no history of disease, more than half of participants had a problem related with severe level of fatigue (n=19), sleep disturbance (n=26) and stress (n=27) status according to the related questionnaires. Participants diagnosed with phlegm syndrome by the Korean Medicine doctor showed significantly greater score in phlegm pattern questionnaires than participants who were not. However, there was little agreement between the doctor's pulse diagnosis and radial artery tonometry results. Conclusions : We conducted a pulse diagnosis and measured health-related information along with the traditional Korean Medicine diagnose procedure, including four stages of diagnosis, and we found a linkage between diagnosis of phlegm and the phlegm pattern questionnaire score. The results suggest that a number of healthy participants, with no disease diagnosed, have Mibyoung symptoms which need further clinical management. Thus, we suggest that Mibyoung management programs based on qualified diagnosis tools and traditional Korean medicine diagnosis procedures be developed, and that future research using various diagnostic tools be carried out on a large population.

The aims of this study were to find out present situation of self-medication, and to explicate the factors affecting self-medication propensity. To explicate empirically the factors affecting self-medication propensity, a model containing five groups of determining factors such as attitudinal, behavioral, knowled해, and need of health care factors, and demographic factors were developed. Data were collected from 647 residents in Pusan and Kyungnam using the self-administered questionnaire. The major reslts obtained were as follows: First, self-medication was 32% of all utilization of pharmacy. The drugs used for self-medication most commonly were analgesics(16.2%), followed by antacids and stomachics(14.2%), dermatologic preparations(13.1%), tonics and drinks (12.6%). Second, the sources from which people obtained drug information at self-medication were label of the container(50.8%), pharmacist(32.4%), self-decision or lay person(16.8%). The experience of side effect was 10.6% of all self-medication and how people cope with was withdrawal(59.0%), consultation by pharmacist or doctor(35.9%). Third, the results of ANOVA showed a statistically significant relationship between self-medication propensity and 3 demograpic factors, such as sex(p<0.10), age(p<0.10) and job(p<0.05). Forth, the results of multiple regression analysis showed a statistically significant positive relationship betwee self-medication propensity and satisfaction of previous self-medication, knowledge of drug, drug dependency, the frequency of doctor visiting, confidence in drug advertisement, tendency toward self-treatment of the family, and job. And it showed negative relationship between self-medication propensity and confidence in the medical profession, and health behavior. The model explained 29.5% of the variance in self-medication(p<0.001).

The purpose of this study is to analyze the direct relationship between doctors and number of patients to be treated by applying many kinds of I E's techniques. Generally, doctors in this research work both at OPD & IPD. Under the hospital manegement system that they are applying in, doctor's daily working schedules are instable because the numbers of OPD patients very daily. Therefore, the amount of time they spend for inward Patients are variable too. So the numbers of Patients have great influence to the whole hospital system management. In the first place, the author researched and analyzed a QC of administrative system. Tn the second place, the author carried out Work Sampling with a view for understanding quantity of a doctor's operation. The author suppose this research and analysis is one approach for improving systematic lay-out planning at outpatient waiting room where has many problems to be solved and suggest several process for improvement.
